Bookbag to Briefcase

The last few days I've been participating in the above named seminar, in order to help me figure out how to get into the Real World. Even though sources told me that this seminar was incredibly lame, I decided to participate anyway, and it actually was not that bad. It also really helped me. I think I will be able to take a lot of the things they

Did any other sources tell you it was worthless? I mean, I had heard it was great from Debbie and when I told her how lame I found it, she seemed surprised (apparently it had better quality in '05 than in '06). I think maybe my issues were mainly that it is not targeted at those of us who are grad-school bound (and if it were, it would be better held sometime in the fall, say, during fall break) and that I'd already been to a grad fair and looked at all of these websites and whatnot about how to end up in the real world / grad school and so I just didn't learn anything new at all from B2B.

The finances part just pissed me off because I am quite aware of how much things like gas and cell phones cost, and it appeared that many in the audience had no fucking clue. Or like, rent. Or insurance. So my issues were partially content, partially peers.

But I am glad you are finding it useful.
